I sat on my deck watching the heavens burst into flame, while I marvelled at the array of vibrant hues boldly splashed on the Masters canvas we call skythinking how blessed am I that each evening I could watch another live panting unfold before my eyeswithout a hint of disguise

Each one with its own unique design making this heart of mine swell with admiration for the artist who makes me awestruck the wonders He performseach day as we go on our merry way with rarely a word of praise to say

As sunset fades into twilight,and twilight into indigo I get lost in the splendour of the stars and moonglow, my poetic imagination begins to flow with the magic of Creastor's nightly show, my passions stirred by such beauty intoxicated and enchanted by the pageantry, I take up pen and pad to record the mystery

Wonderful sentiments about part of what is around we humans. If one stops long enough to think about it, "really" think about it, it just boggles the mind. The sky, so serene and pecaceful can give us unheard of misery within hours of that peaceful serene scene. The ocean, another favorite Muse-influenced phenomenon, can also wreck havoc. Even the earth we walk and play upon can be our worst nightmare. Still, when taken into context, the elements are only acting as we humans tend to do, putting on a smiling face before stabbing you in the back. Whoa!!! Where did all THIS come from. I'm almost sorry to post this because your poem was so beautiful, but . . .

Wanna swap your sunsets for my clouds...
I guess we have them, but they're above the clouds..
Praise him for the clouds, fog and drizzle too..

Eileen,
There will never be another artist as talented as He. If there were sunsets in Tx to match this one, my whole life would be surrounded by them.
Your words helped make this one even more special. Thank you for sharing such a flawless piece of art. From both you and He.

Seeing this with 20/20 mind is equally as important as seeing this heavenly sunset with 20/20 vision. We've got to be able to hold it all together in our minds. And have appreciation for the Higher Power's Canvas. Eileen, I recognize the last stanza to be the text you use with your bio pic. Now it makes perfect sense to me why you chose this description. Thanks for sharing!

You paint a wondrous picture of awe and reverence for our Maker Eileen in this striking and spiritual poem.
It is true, there is magic and miracles all around us on a daily basis,and we have become immune to these majestic shows in nature and the dazzling Universe !
TY for sharing this spiritual re-awakening with us, and reminding us to be grateful for these natural and spontaneous blessings !
That is also a truly eye catching and awesome sunset picture, which sets the scene for your beautiful composition.
Love
Peter
